Sony has "done a nice job with PS4", says Xbox One's Phil Spencer
"Nintendo, I think - and there's some argument about this - that their first-party is such an amazing asset," he began, when our colleagues in the US asked what he had learned from rivals. "Their first party studios and IP can lead what they do as a company and the platforms are almost in service to the IP - not in a bad way.
"They have such iconic stories and this will seem somewhat random, but when we go back and do something like Killer Instinct, a little bit of the history of your franchise can actually be important part of people feeling connected. Obviously the history of Killer Instinct isn't a history on Xbox, but it's Rare's history and I think the reaction when we announced it on-stage at E3 showed that playing to the people's heart, I think Nintendo does that as well as anybody in terms of hitting the franchises and having huge success with them."
As for PlayStation, Spencer is cheered by Sony's willingness to back developers like Quantic Dream, creator of the intriguing but rather oblique Heavy Rain. "Sony - and I'm focused on first-party because of what I do - I really respect their focus on investing in new things and creative things, what they've done with David Cage and Quantic Dream around Beyond [Two Souls] and Heavy Rain; they stay committed to franchises even if they don't sell 10 million units, they'll stay committed to things.
"I think that long-term commitment to franchises is important, where it's easy to pull off the Band-Aid and move onto the next thing [if it doesn't sell]. I respect their 'stick-to-it-iveness'. I'll say, they've done a nice job with PS4 [...] When I think about their announcement, their clear focus on a customer, leading with the value proposition of what they're trying to do, staying true to a vision, I think they've done a nice job in how they defined the PS4."

Epicremix567 although the ps4 is technically better i will always be a xbox fan :)
It really depends on the individuals opinion when it comes to consoles.. they both fundamentally do the same thing anyway

jstrout626KatsumiStooped PS4 looks rather cool and all but XBOX One has overall better performance and the graphics ae better I think.
From a technical standpoint the PS4 has better specifications.
Yeah the ps4 plays battlefield at 900p and cod at 1080p where as the xbone plays both at 720p exept for cutscenes which are upscaled to 1080p or atleast thats what I've hears. And as for performance the ps4 already has more power but on top of that 10% of th xbones ram goes to the kinect
Actually 10% of the gpu goes to the Kinect, along with 3GB of ram being used for the OS.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but PS4 has slightly better specs than the Xbox 1.

The PS4 and the xbox one are both amazing consoles but i still feel that sony actually made a console for gamers and i respect the PS4 more than the xbox one for that.

Wubs I always love to see companies complement and be nice to each other.
But sometimes companies do poke fun such as "How to share a game" guide made by the guys at Sony.
But at the end of the day they respect each other.
Now only if console gamers can do the same...
aha that How to share a game video made me laugh :P
Console developers learn from one another and equally share a part in the gaming community. Even though they are rivals in a sense and compete with their consoles, it is nice to see them treat one another kindly.
I do wish, we could all get a long as gamer's but sadly that never will be the case.
